Morehouse College

What is the cost of studying for a year at Morehouse College?

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition at Morehouse was the same for in-state and out-of-state students. Tuition and mandatory fees are only part of an annual budget: housing, meals, books, transportation, and personal expenses must also be considered.

• Reported annual full-time undergraduate tuition: $28,964.
• Reported mandatory fees: $3,929.
• Tuition plus mandatory fees: $32,893, before living and other expenses.

These are published charges, not a student's final bill or a complete cost-of-attendance estimate. Reported average net prices after aid also vary by family income: the figure was $36,534 for the lowest reported income band, $0-$48,000, and $42,723 for families above $110,000. A net price is an average that includes costs beyond tuition and fees; it should not be added to the tuition figure. Individual grants, housing choices, and other circumstances can produce a different result.

Financial aid can include federal grants for eligible students, federal loans, and institutional scholarships. Eligible Georgia residents should also check state-aid rules. Morehouse reported that 92% of students received financial aid and 57% had student loans; the average reported undergraduate grant award was $19,731 among recipients. Aid is not interchangeable with a discount: grants generally do not require repayment, whereas loans do. Applicants should complete the FAFSA and review Morehouse's scholarship and aid deadlines, then compare their own award letter with a full cost-of-attendance budget. Students using military education benefits should confirm eligibility and benefit coordination with the college before relying on an estimated award.

What are the work-study opportunities at Morehouse College?

Eligible Morehouse students may be able to combine classes with Federal Work-Study or another part-time job. Federal Work-Study is need-based aid earned through eligible employment; an award is not the same as cash credited to a bill before the student works, nor does it automatically place a student in a position.

Students interested in Work-Study should submit the FAFSA, review their aid offer, and ask the financial aid or student employment office how to find approved openings and complete hiring paperwork. Other campus jobs may have different funding and eligibility rules. An internship can provide professional experience but is not necessarily paid or part of Work-Study.

For career planning, Morehouse students can also seek help with job and internship searches, application materials, interview preparation, and employer connections through the college's career resources. Students comparing opportunities should ask whether a position pays wages, carries academic credit, or both - and whether its hours are manageable alongside their courses.
